ANOTHER SIGNING

You've read words of this happening all over the net, and now it is official - Roadrunner Records has another addition to the family, please welcome CHIMAIRA.
Are you on their mailing list? In case you are not, here is the press release I just received from the band via email -
"Cleveland's Chimaira have officially inked a deal with Roadrunner Records.
After over 6 months of negotiation, and contemplating offers from other
labels, the band decided to sign with Roadrunner, the label that has spawned
such acts as Sepultura, Slipknot, Fear Factory, Machine Head, Soulfly, Coal
Chamber and Spineshank.
Vocalist Mark Hunter had this to say. " Now we finally have an opportunity
for our music to be heard. It's a dream come true considering i've wanted to
be affiliated with the bands on Roadrunner since I was 13. Ever since I heard
Sepultura.I said 'I have to be in a band and get on that label so i can say
i'm label mates with such amazing bands.' And although we talked to some
other very cool labels that were really into what we were doing, this band
BELONGS on Roadrunner. "
After the signing bassist JIm La Marca was said to have gone on a drunken
rampage through the streets of Cleveland, terrorizing patrons and employees
of a local TGI Fridays."
Expect things to happen real quick on this project (i.e. Chimaira hitting the studio as early as this month). More words (and some music) to come on this signing, including a quote from Roadrunner A&R.

Until tomorrow...
